Here is my newbie's hack.

from line 177:

-      (shell-command (concat
-	(if (and ess-microsoft-p (w32-shell-dos-semantics))
-	    "start \"" pdfviewer "\" \"" namestem ".pdf\""
-	          "\"" pdfviewer "\" \"" namestem ".pdf\" &"))))
+      (shell-command (concat
+	          "\"" pdfviewer "\" \"" namestem ".pdf\"")))

It will not work on Windows because I disabled it; but on my Linux box
it works fine now. Hope somebody can come up with a "real" solution.
